What Hacker News says

2 sources
I wrote my own as I wanted sass + syntax highlighting + a good template engine without having to install Node or similar (https://www.getgutenberg.io/). Not a lot of themes yet so it's better for peopl In short, I just write my content in markdown, style in Sass and HTML in Tera (https://github.com/Keats/tera/) which is very similar to Jinja2. I then automatically build & deploy from https://www.netlify.com/ on commits. Netlify will also get built-in support the next time they deploy their build image (ie all you need for your site to be deployed will be a file like https://github.com/Keats/gutenberg/blob/a2b55a927981727ce00a...) like Hugo does. My own site is a bit difference as I have a DO instance for it but the script is simply copying the public folder to the server and have Caddy serve it.

I use Gutenberg (https://www.getgutenberg.io/) which provides built-in Sass compilation and live-reloading in a single binary. I just write Markdown and generate posts with Tera (https://github.com/Keats/tera ) templates for my HTML, so if I ever wanted to migrate to something else it would be trivial, but I'm a happy camper now. When I'm ready to publish I just copy the public directory right to my webserver, but I could just as easily publish to GitHub or the like if I didn't enjoy maintaining my own domain.
